Daughter From Danang
The war in Vietnam had an impact far beyond the battlefield. The award-winning Daughter From Danang tells the story of Heidi Bub, the daughter of an American GI and a Vietnamese woman, who was airlifted to the U.S. and adopted as an orphan at the end of the war. Decades later, she seeks a reunion with her birth mother -- but is unprepared for the frustrations and tensions that result. See the U.S. and Vietnam through Heidi's eyes, read an interview with the filmmakers, access "Doonesbury" cartoons about the controversial evacuations of Operation Babylift, see a gallery of the war's impact on Southeast Asia, and read a Vietnamese American journalist's thoughts about living in two cultures.

Special features on this site include interview excerpts explaining why some embraced revolutionary attitudes; a book excerpt on the homegrown terrorists of the S.L.A., and a game, "What's Your Bag?", that puts you on a college campus in the late Sixties and asks you to decide what you would have done if you were 17 during the time of the Vietnam War.
